MOA adjustable jack plates

GOTR · Sep 24, 2020

Has anyone here used adjustable jackplates for longer range shooting?

Specifically this one:. https://labalestramoderna.anotherweb.it/2018/08/23/ravin-jack-plate/

The Ravin jack plate is designed to be used on a crossbow with optic rail. Has something like 250 moa.

I personally have no experience with jackplates and most of the info online is meant for ELR shooting with high power cartridge rifles like the weatherby mag or swift220. For powder burners long distance shooting doesn't begin until your target is past 500-600yds. For an air rifle thats an extreme shot and for a crossbow as well.

So I'm wondering if this Ravin jackplate might be worth the price? Other optic rail jack plates meant for cartridge rifles cost $400-700

I never seen anything like that, I think the adjustable scope rings is a better and way cheaper way to go..

GOTR,

I actually have one, it's a solid unit. I wouldn't hesitate to use it on a PCP, but i'd think twice on a springer. If i can, I'll shoot a quick video, if i have the chance, am at the Carolina Classic for the next few days

Agree with airgunmike56 to many things to go wrong , I will stick to adjustable rings , but it's good to have a options.

I had one of these on my Tenpoint Vapor crossbow and I was competing Field to 80 yards. Also I had sight marks up to 120

THIS looks interesting for all the hard to mount scopes-certain guns like 10 meter guns for example or scope camera mounting needs or for just plain weird mounting scopes like the MTC Connect Especially with the larger 32mm front bell.

Thanks for all your input !

Only reason I was interested in the crossbow moa mount is that the adjustable rifle mounts cost upwards of $400 and sometimes over 600.

Ridiculous considering it's just the mount, no optics in it. It would make sense to get the best of you're trying to hit a pie plate a mile downrange but we're not doing that yet

Remindsme of the Elcan scope base

GOTR · Sep 25, 2020

Yeah it's very similar but maybe designed with a longer rail to accommodate full sized scopes?

Just printed this sidewheel and an ref indicator (blue) for ZB lite adjustable mount, still to make distance marking.
